Summary

"Renunciation is internal dropout, not external dropout" This is often in direct contrast to the Western model of achievement oriented success. But we are not required to move off into a cave in order to find enlightenment. Through complete devotion to our work and our love for that process, we can absolutely move in the direction of realization. "By letting go, everything gets done. The world is won by those who let it go. But when you try and try, the world is beyond the winning" Through cultivation of the witness we move out of the melodrama and into the place of pure perspective and peaceful awareness See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

to call this real true renunciation. This is a talk. Again, those talks between the first time Ramdas

went to India and came back, which was, he went in 66, 67, came back in the 67. So these talks, 68,

0:47.9

69 into the first two thirds of 70 before he went back to India. There's some really

0:56.4

essences material because we've been looking, here's a little announcement, we're going to have a

1:03.5

wonderful summer online practice course and we're pulling all sorts of material from Ramdas and

1:15.2

each week. We're going to present to whoever wants to be part of this. You'll get a notification

1:23.1

and be able to sign up and you'll get a different practice each week. You want to be meditation,

1:29.8

you want to be chanting, you want to be mantras, you want to be yoga and you'll be able to do these

practices on a day-to-day basis. I think it'll be quite a great thing for this summer. So in the course

of looking for material for the course, this is one of the talks that we came by Nathan who curates

of Sharon Salisberg, Jack Cornfield, Lama Suriyadas and others and we're doing a crowdfunding for it

because we do need support. We're also busy here working with the foundation and so on but people

2:49.6

love these podcasts and they're really feeding a need and so we decided that we needed to raise some
